Jevani Brown has made quite the impact on fans and coaches alike since signing from St Neots Town.

Initially an ever-present in the U’s starting line-up, the midfielder then dropped to the bench and has not featured since the U’s 1-0 defeat to Southampton in the Chekatrade Trophy, while his last league appearance was a substitute appearance against in the 2-0 defeat away to Swindon Town.

And while part of the reason he has not been able to get in the first team is due to the good performances of Medy Elito, head coach Shaun Derry also said it was part of a larger rotation policy.

Derry also said he wanted players who were missing out on the squads on Saturdays and Tuesdays to remain "positive".

“You call it a rest, I call it a rotation and the chance for somebody else to pull on the shirt,” he said.

“I think Medy has done really well at home against Forest Green and Jevani is now in his fourth, fifth senior game as a senior professional footballer, he’s not in his 40th or 50th.

“[You want] reactions, positive reactions to being disappointed, positive reactions to not playing the game on Saturday and Tuesday night.

“And stability, stability in the mindset. You don’t want them to be up and down one week from the next as that causes problems for the coaches and the players too.

“But for Jevani, we’re coaching him how to be a professional footballer and that doesn’t happen overnight.”
